The nature and extent of specific types of GBV vary across cultures, countries, and regions. Examples include sexual violence, including sexual exploitation/abuse and forced prostitution; domestic violence; trafficking; forced/early marriage; harmful traditional practices such as female genital mutilation; honour killings; and widow inheritance. (https://trainingcentre.unwomen.org/mod/glossary/showentry.php?eid=50) Family Violence (FV) Family violence covers physical, social, sexual, economic and emotional abuse and acts of aggression within relationships that are considered as family connections or akin to family connection It includes married couples, intimate partners whether living together or dating, and violence between parents and children. Family violence is gender-based, with the most prevalent form of violence within the family being violence against women and girls. Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) for example, is a significant feature of FV in Jamaica. Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) IPV refers to any behaviour within an intimate relationship that causes physical, psychological, or sexual harm to those in the relationship. Examples include acts of physical violence (such as slapping, hitting, kicking and beating), sexual violence, emotional (psychological) abuse, and controlling behaviours, including isolating a person from family and friends; monitoring their movements; and restricting access to financial resources, employment, education or medical care.
